MEDITATION
In our last post we gave a few reminders concerning the importance of rest and how to make real progress in your leadership position (here's the link to our last post
Today is very exciting as we start a topic which we will be continuing for a while. We will be discussing the future in it's entirety and how the future affects leaders.
Although we often think that we are planning for the future and create goals for the future, we do not correctly harness it's capabilities.
We actually focus most on the past and the present. We use the present as an opportunity to improve on past mistakes and mishaps, and we use the past as a guideline on how we should operate. But we don't take the future into full consideration. To take it into full consideration we need to:
- Acknowledge that the future is an indisputable truth.
- Accept and understand that the future comes with changes.
- Use it to motivate us.
- Gain inspiration from the uncertainty that the future contains.
- Take control of it and mold your future in such a way that it aligns with your individual purpose ( We discussed finding your individual purpose in our prior post. Go check it out https://genyouthgen.blogspot.com/2019/12/welcome-back.html )
We are going to start by discussing the acknowledgement of the future and therefore it's acceptance. The future cannot be hundred percent predicted and therefore it becomes very hard to full accept it. But we do need to recognize it and give the future it's necessary acknowledgement.
With the future comes changes and as well as the end for everything, all things eventually end. And we need to plan for when they do.
Your leadership should be flexible and not grounded to the point whereby you will struggle if a major change is initiated. With the future comes growth and development but only if you always save a space in your mind for growth and change.

SOCIETY
Last time we introduced the topic of how the current state that we find ourselves has exposed our leaders and the injustices we face as a society.
Today we will give one answer from one of the questions we asked, "If we need to be as crooked and corrupt as our current leaders to occupy the same role?"
We asked this question because it seems that those who would objectively be unseen to hold such high leadership position usually do end up in that very leadership position. We all know and have many examples of how people have lied, cheated and stolen in order to reach a leadership position and worse they continue to lie, cheat and steal once they are in that leadership role. And we all have examples of people who would be seen as the best choice for a leadership role not getting it just because they could not compete against those who lie, cheat and steal.
Your first answer would be no. That we do not need to stoop down to the levels and tactics of the unjust in our to reach a leadership position. This is one way of looking at it. This way of thinking is probably the most righteous and fair way of thinking. There are also many examples of leaders who kept their virtue and their values and still overcame those that use unjust tactics to get a position.
Next time we are going to further discuss this question and give another spin on it ( using unjust tactics with just and fair intentions to reach your goal ).
Tell us if you have been in a situation where you had to do something unjust but with good intentions in leadership, or if someone who has lied and cheated their way to the top or if that is happening to you right now and you would like to know how to handle it.
